Don't get rid of your necklace

don't throw your ring away,

I might not be there now

but I'll be back for you one day.

Keep my heart close by

for it will always remain yours,

when I come sweep you off your feet

we can walk the ocean shores.

I still remember all we shared

with the memories and the moments,

from waking in your little bed

to all our sarcastic comments.

And when we first met 

the excuses we made,

to hold each others hand

our smiles wouldn't fade. 

Underneath those concrete steps

I asked you to be mine,

my life started then 

you made my smile shine.

You made my life worth living

you made me truly smile,

I still love you with all my heart

though we're separated by these miles.

I still remember the spot we found

where we spent every weekday lunch,

right beside the gymnasium doors 

I miss those times so much.

Moments come and go like that

but our memories will remain,

I'll be back for you one day

and we'll make more memories again.

This is really powerful. You have a lot of powerful feelings, and you did a good job of expressing them.

[Maria F. Rojas]

so sweet, so beautiful, so precious and embrace every moment before things go away but in your mind, and heart always stay.

This is too beautiful. Emotion just pours off the page. Keep true to yourself, she is one lucky young lady.

[Aimee Mahathy]

Aww, this is a very sweet tribute to the one you love so much! The honesty in this is breathtaking~
Though, I think the line "when I come sweep you off your feet" would flow better as "when I come to sweep you off your feet". But, that's just my thought, dismiss it if you want~ :3
This is a wonderful poem!

Who ever you seem to be writing about in your poems is a very lucky person. I hope they know how much they mean to you. You have such hope and passion in your words. I hope your relationship lasts way beyond the distance between you two! You have great work, keep it up!

this is very very good. i really dont like reading long poems like this, but when i started i couldnt stop. this is filled with honesty, image, and hope. :)

There is such an honest passion to your words, living in a hope of what may be flowing from the light of what was. Wonderful piece!
